Mobileway SMS Solution Results in a 100% Response Rate for OAAG


Mobileway - the leading global facilitator of data and money flows in the wireless space between mobile network operators, corporations and content providers - has broken the boundaries of traditional advertising by achieving a 100% take-up rate via its SMS solution for the Organization of Asian Amateur Golfers (OAAG).

OAAG offered a special promotion to members via SMS and within the same day received an influx of calls from members wanting to sign up for the offer. This was the first time the Organisation has received such a tremendous response. It previously offered club promotions via traditional advertising.

"Mobileway was approached to provide a cost effective and efficient mode of reaching out to OAAG members," said Cyrille Even, Vice President, Mobileway Asia Pacific, "Our solution was to send SMS messages to their members who have signed up for this service, offering them the lowest green fees in Singapore. This enabled OAAG members to receive up-to-date information through the fastest and most personal mode possible - their mobile phones."

Previously, OAAG members had to log-on to the OAAG Organisation web site or call to find out which clubs in Singapore are offering promotions.

"We are extremely pleased to have partnered with Mobileway because we are now able to offer our members not only premium golfing services but also to move to a whole new paradigm of a total consumer experience," said Marcus Chang, Group CEO, Director Organisation of Asian Amateur Golfers. "Thanks to Mobileway's services, we can now reach out to our members anytime, anywhere via SMS on their personal trusted device, the mobile phone."

OAAG's objective is to bring alive the amateur golfing arena in Singapore to promote and build a community among the members for their mutual benefit and to bring the best interest and true spirit of the game of golf. OAAG looks after the interests of amateur golfers in Singapore and strives to maintain affordable green fees for its members.
